Anti-Spam-Rename is doing its job

CB — Sat, 14 Apr 2007 07:04:14 +0000

I have been running Anti-Spam-Rename for the last 6 days now and it seems, that it does a really good job. I still get some spam (54 spam comments in that timeframe), but compared to over 100 spam comments per day before, it is a reduction of over 1111%.

So, if anyone was fearless enough to test the plugin, it would be great, if you would comment on it.

Anti-Spam-Rename – My first WordPress plugin

CB — Mon, 09 Apr 2007 12:46:26 +0000

In the last weeks the amount of comment and trackback spam in my blog significantly increased from just a few to over 100 entries per day. Although Akismet does a very good job, sometimes there are false-positives so that you have to go reguarly through the list of marked spam to filter these.
On discobeats.de I read about an easy way to prevent spam. As the described method of manually renaming and updating certain files of your wordpress installation, is annoying after some time, I created a WordPress plugin.

Although it is still a feature-incomplete version, perhaps anyone likes to try it (on his/her own risk ):
